“Met Josh for an interview and he took his time coming through the door to make sure my dog was comfortable, that was great. We all went for a walk and chatted about what I was expecting as an owner and what was best for my dog. I hired him for a few walks to see how it went and everything was wonderful. Very respectful, sent photos and updated me when he arrived, walked and left. We are very happy to have someone so responsible and kind when we are gone from the house. Shorty says Hire Josh :)”


About: I have two rescue dogs, one of which I have owned for 8+ years. I also volunteer at a local rescue where I take dogs out of the kennel for walks on a regular basis. On top of my love for dogs, I am a teacher, so I am responsible and caring. I am a teacher, but I do not teach every day of the week and have summers and breaks off, so I am available many days to help take care of your pets and their needs. I also have owned dogs for the last 8 years and have experience with all aspects of pet care. I have experience with dogs at a kennel, so I am used to making sure dogs are safe and well taken care of. I am careful to make sure doors are secure and leashes/harnesses are properly put on to secure the safety of your pet. I have experience putting dogs in and taking them out of a crate. Your dogs safety is top priority.
“Dana is AWESOME! She is very thorough and loving walker. 10/10 would recommend her to walk your pup. She met with us before she started walking my pup, and my Ollie loved her instantly, and so did we!! She took notes on everything we told her about our pupper. She’s extremely experienced and gives a full report after each walk. Thank you so much Dana! You have made our days so much easier by helping out with our little boy!!”


About: I’ve spent the last three years working professionally in animal care, managing busy doggy daycares and looking after pups of every breed. Because of my professional background, I’m attuned to dog body language and safety. I love building bonds with each individual dog and making sure they get the exact structure, playtime, and love they deserve while you’re away!

About: For the past couple of years I have been pet sitting for a colleague and friend of mine and I absolutely love it. I have experience with dealing with dogs with some special needs and I am more than welcome to learn. The youngest I have had was 4 years old and then all the way up to 15 years old. Let me take the load off your shoulders and be able to take care of your fur babies. Though I love dogs, please know that I REALLY love cats too. I am catgirl at heart so please be rest assured that I will take amazing care of them as well. I used to have a feral cat, now with my loving parents 🐈. Currently I have three, so I also do know how it can be when not everyone gets along. Almost everyone in my life owns a cat, so I hope that gives some perspective :). So yes. I’m here for your dog.. but I am also here for the cat folks too 🐾. I have a very flexible schedule due to my job. It allows for myself to create my own schedule so it not only makes my life easier but could very well make yours too. Weekends I have availability and during the week it varies! I care for the pets in my own life allowing them to roam wherever they desire. Besides some closest but they always make their way .
“Rebecca is the best. She is communicative, prompt, and you can tell she truly enjoys animals. She sent me so many photos of my dog during their walks, it made me smile and I knew my dog was in good hands. I highly recommend her services. Thank you so much!”

About: I've been blessed to grow up with a pet best friend my entire life whether from dogs & cats to hamsters, guinea pigs, and parakeets. My wife and I will treat your pet as it is our own! My wife works remotely from home and I am a PhD student with a flexible schedule and weekend availability. Our schedules allow for frequent walks, bathroom breaks, play time, and lots of attention. We also have a rescued 1yr old goldendoodle who is neutered and loves other dogs. Your pet will never feel alone! While safety is our top priority, your pet's happiness and care is just as important. We live in a 3-story townhouse with an unfenced yard but live across the street from a park where we take our dog on daily walks. There also a few nearby dog parks if you prefer for your dog to run off-leash. Your pet will have full range to our entire home and we will make sure they feel right at home!

About: I have extensive experience in pet care, encompassing a wide range of animals from dogs and cats to birds and small mammals. My approach is rooted in understanding each pet's unique needs, ensuring they receive personalized attention and a comfortable environment. Whether it's providing daily exercise, administering medications, or simply offering companionship, I am dedicated to the well-being and happiness of every animal under my care. Creating a daily routine for animals is essential for their physical and mental well-being. A structured schedule helps regulate their body clock, reduces anxiety, and promotes good behavior. This involves consistent feeding times, regular exercise, dedicated playtime, and scheduled rest periods, all tailored to the specific needs of the animal. By maintaining a predictable environment, animals feel secure and are more likely to thrive, leading to a happier and healthier life. Ensuring the safety of animals involves creating a secure and hazard-free environment. This includes identifying and removing potential dangers such as toxic substances, sharp objects, and unsecured spaces. It's also crucial to monitor animals closely during activities, providing appropriate supervision and intervention when necessary. Additionally, understanding species-specific safety measures, like proper leash handling for dogs or secure enclosures for small pets, is vital for preventing accidents and ensuring the well-being of the animals in your care.
About: ⸻ What sets me apart from other sitters is my calm, intuitive approach to animal care—think “Mary Poppins meets animal whisperer.” I don’t just watch pets; I create a nurturing, structured environment where they feel safe, loved, and engaged. I have experience with a wide range of animals, from playful puppies to senior pets who need extra patience and gentle handling. I’m comfortable with administering medication, managing special diets, and adapting routines to meet each pet’s physical and emotional needs. For puppies, I focus on positive reinforcement, helping with basic training, crate comfort, and establishing good habits early on. For senior pets, I provide thoughtful care—whether that’s supporting mobility, sticking to precise medication schedules, or simply offering quiet companionship. Beyond the basics, I bring a warm energy, attention to detail, and a genuine love for animals that always shines through. My goal is for both pets and their humans to feel completely at ease—like they’ve found a sitter who’s not just capable, but truly cares. Pet care is a natural part of my daily and weekly routine—it’s not something I squeeze in; it’s something I prioritize. Whether I’m walking dogs, administering medication, or simply spending quiet time with a senior pet, I structure my schedule to ensure each animal gets consistent, focused attention. I plan my days around the needs of the pets in my care, from early morning potty breaks to evening feedings and bedtime routines. I also build in time for play, enrichment, and cuddles—because emotional wellbeing is just as important as physical care. If I’m caring for multiple pets or have bookings throughout the week, I stay organized with detailed notes, reminders, and plenty of communication with owners. For me, caring for animals isn’t a job I clock in and out of—it’s a rhythm I genuinely enjoy being part of. Pet care for clients home • Feeding & Fresh Water: Administer meals according to the pet’s schedule and dietary needs. • Daily Exercise & Play: Walks, fetch, playtime, or enrichment activities based on the pet’s energy level. • Routine Maintenance: Cleaning litter boxes, picking up waste, and ensuring the area is tidy. • Medication Administration: If required, administer medications or supplements as instructed. • Home Care: Bringing in mail, watering plants, adjusting lights, and maintaining a lived-in appearance. • Communication: Sending daily updates, photos, or videos to the client.
“Fruzsina is a fantastic, highly engaged dog walker. Her communication is top-tier—I always get great photos and a breakdown of how the walk went. She is very proactive about suggesting new ways to keep my dog enriched and stimulated. She is very involved and enthusiastic, which shows how much she cares. A great choice for any owner who values a collaborative and communicative partnership.”

About: My entire life I have owned at least 3 pets. From foster cats, to my own cats, dogs, neighbors dogs, etc. I am a pet person through and through. I have a range of ages of animals I’ve taken care of - from dogs in elderly stages to 2 week old kittens. I am currently working from home Mon,Wed, Thursday, Fri. I’m constantly taking quick walks around the block during the day to keep my energy up and get outside. We have already cat sat in our apartment and everything went smoothly. We ensure doors are closed and locked at all times so there is a 0% chance of escaping. I live in between two parks as well which are always full of dogs to play in.
About: What Sets Me Apart 🌟: 👣 Experienced Walker: With years of dog-walking under my belt, I adjust to suit every pup's pace. 🐶 Expert Caretaker: From puppy training to senior snuggles, I've got the skills to make your fur-baby feel right at home. 🧡 Passionate Pet Parent: As a dedicated former dog owner myself, I understand the love and attention your furry friend deserves and will treat them like my own! 🏆 Above & Beyond: I go the extra mile, committed to making your dog/cat feel comfortable, safe, and loved. My job is completely remote and I have a car so my schedule is super flexible! Even if you want me to just hang out with your pup/cat I can do that during the 9-5 hours when many are at work/school! I live in a larger apartment in Cambridge near a park! As for larger dogs, I am happy to come your way so they don't need to leave the comfort of their space and have a yard to run around!
About: Growing up, pet sitting was my favorite job. I would spend summers taking care of pets. I've never had a house without pets from cats to dogs to birds to rabbits, we've had a happy and full household! I currently have 3 cats, Mo, Kiko, and Benny, and I couldn't ask for a better trio to spend my days with. I would love to give your pets the same love and care. I'm very in tune with reading animals and I will make sure they have the boundaries and comfort they need while you are away. I have a full time job that is flexible during the day to take care of your animals as needed. I enjoy being active and would love to spend time outside with your pets. While walking your dog, I would pick safe neighborhoods or trails, depending on what you would like. I am big on safety and comfort and I would make sure to keep your pup in a happy comfortable place while we enjoy some fresh air and exercise.

About: Since I can remember I have always been around dogs and cats in my life, mostly rescues, who needed training and caring for. I currently pet sit for my family when they are away, and walk dogs for family friends. When I was a professional cleaner I encountered all breeds and ages of cats and dogs every single day so I am very comfortable around all types of pets. I especially love and have experience with pitty breeds as well as experience with some reactive cats and know what to do to gain their trust. When not taking care or animals, I am a freelance dancer and choreographer! I take dance class some evenings and may have a weekend show or rehearsals. Other than that, I am readily available especially during the morning, afternoons, and later in the evenings/overnight for your furry friends! Before we officially book, I will make sure we have a meet and greet so that your pet can get to know me as we talk about all your needs for my visit! Along with any of your pet's special needs, I will ask you to leave me with any emergency contact information just in case anything were to happen, as well as my personal contact info. I also will send you updates for your peace of mind as well as some adorable pictures of your pet(s)!

We've had a great experience with Josh. He's had zero issues handling our dog Bo, who is leash reactive. Bo loves his time with Josh and is excited to see him the minute he pulls up. We especially appreciate Josh's flexibility in accommodating our schedules and accepting some last minute requests. Highly recommend!

Megan is amazing! My dog is very shy and fearful of people. Megan has been so patient with him and willing to do whatever it takes to make him comfortable. Within a few times of meeting he’s gotten much more comfortable with her. She is reliable and easy to work with!

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Manchester. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every walker on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Manchester. On Rover:
- 96% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 99% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
